If It’s Meant to Be, It Will Happen
If it's meant to be, it will happen. My mentor, Rhonda Shasteen, gave me those words of advice a long time ago. They continue to have new meaning for me the older I get and have more life experiences. I always understood the language, but learning to let go of trying to force things into happening has been a much longer process. Flash back to about fifteen years ...Read More
Put the Law of Attraction into Action
Like attracts like. That is the Law of Attraction. I must admit that I was the number one skeptic of the power of positive thinking as presented through books like The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. I convinced myself it was a new age, cultish philosophy and that I should steer clear. Over the last couple of months, I had multiple conversations with both friends and acquaintances where the book continued ...Read More
Live to Give
I absolutely love Yogi Tea. Not only is the their tea organic and yummy, but they also put inspiring mantras on the tag of each tea bag. I just pulled out a tea bag with a statement that applies directly to this post I've had in my heart to write. It says, " Your greatness is measured by your gifts, not your possessions." This is one of those ...Read More

5 Tools to Overcome Negative Self-Talk and Limiting Beliefs?
I think most of us at some time or another have struggled with negative self-talk. You may have dropped something or bumped into something and called yourself stupid. You've punished yourself for making a mistake or not getting that promotion. I've spent the last year and a half retraining my thought patterns to be more positive and naturally healthy rather than self-deprecating and negative thanks to the teachings ...Read More
A Daily Meditation Mantra Practice
When I first learned The Secret a year ago, I was encouraged to begin a daily meditation practice. I had never meditated, so I started with just three minutes a day. I didn't know how to meditate, so I began by taking a suggestion made in The Secret. The book recommends repeating a mantra that goes as follows, "I am whole, perfect, strong, powerful, loving, harmonious, and happy." ...Read More

Joy Is Your Job
Are you happy? Do you want to feel happier? Did you know you could feel deep- rooted feelings of genuine joy every single day? I didn't know that for the longest time. I would get wrapped up in my real problems or self-invented problems or anything else that was created in "the six inches between my ears." I would focus all of my energy and attention on the ...Read More
